GTA V: Zombie Mode?

RomansMoobs

So you're all saying you wouldn't want an open world 3rd person shooter, with vehicles, explosives and more?

It would be like Undead Nightmare but way better. Undead Nightmare was an awesome DLC, and if they further improve upon it in a GTA DLC, how can you say no?

All of you saying "GO PLAY BLACK OPS HURRRR DURRRR f*ckING POTATO IQ", you're all aware that COD sucks ass, right?, and that I would rather have GTA mixed with zombies than COD with linear levels and linear death animations, from a basic FPS. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING. GTA would at least make the zombies exciting.

If done correctly it could be great.. besides it would be an "option" and not forced.. If they make the zombies more like mad creatures than slow walking mummy's it would work well.. Dont make it comical like saints row.. Get Call of Duty style aggressive zombie's and give a feel of survival.

It would be cool if it was realistic. Like, in the city, there would be nobody, just tons of zombies on every street. Going there would be suicide, but it has the most resources like food and guns shops. Going there, you could make a shelter in a store or mall or something, barricade the walls and all that, zombies constantly trying to get you, oh man that'd be awesome.

And you could get hungry, cars could run on gas and all that, and in the countryside there would be less zombies, but more insane people with guns. And you could make a base there and upgrade it with watch towers with snipers and all that, and send people out to find more survivors and resources.

All though that would be too much to ask, I think it would be easier than a RDR styled DLC where it's a story, this would take a lot less time and I think would be more fun.

People who are saying go buy other zombie games like Dead Rising dont understand, A map with the scale of GTA that is also free roam with zombies would be fantastic, other zombie games like Dead Rising are terrible... Would love to be able to go into online free roam with other friends and have to survive zombies. Would make for a great survival game!

cod and saints row isnt about zombies. it only made the game more fun so whats your point? if you dont like it you dont have to play it if they did add zombies to GTA V. RDR had zombies so why would it be a problem for R*?

It would be nice as a mode online, but I don't want a whole DLC dedicated to it because, as much fun as I would find that it would make rockstar look lazy and tacky and i'm sure they will be able to think of something a lot more entertaining

For all the people saying "Zombies are overdone, in every game, are getting old, etc.", Uh no. Do you know what's being over done? FPS's like CoD. Zombies are fun. What is your issue with zombies being in this game? IF they added a cheat in GTA V that turned peds into zombies, that would be the best zombie game of all times. Think about it. You could drive around mowing zombies down with your car, mow them down with guns, melee weapons, etc. And the best part have no cops come after you. With the amount of things you can do in a GTA game, adding zombies on top of that would add endless hours of fun to it for me, and A LOT of people. It would not affect anyone if there was a zombie cheat or DLC. If you don't like zombies, don't use it/ download it. I could understand if they made the main GTA game have zombies, then yeah I could see how people could be upset. But they're not doing that. If they decide to add zombies in the ways I said it would be AMAZING.

Exactly this.

Name one zombie game where you have a giant open, detailed world like in GTA, with a wide range of vehicles and weapons, that takes place in a modern setting, and with good third-person gameplay.

There has never been zombie game that would be like a GTA Zombie DLC except Red Dead Redemption, but that took place way back in 1911 - and itstill wouldn't be the same compared to a GTA Zombie DLC.

I swear to God if I hear, "This is GTA not (Sains Row/COD/Dead Rising/etc)." one more time I'm going to

Like i said.... there's a game coming out in a couple of months called "War Z" which is all the things you just stated and more. Because this is a dedicated Zombie survival game... A GTA DLC wouldn't really compete.. especially if they come out around the same time. Sometime before the year ends.

I'm sorry but this is an awful excuse I see get tossed around in these kinds of topics.

You might as well say "Go play COD if you want this gun blah blah blah" or "Go play Resident Evil if you want multiple protagonists" or my favorite - "Go play Mafia II if you want realistic crime"

Might as well divide GTA up into a bunch of smaller DLCS that you have to buy to make one full game. The gameplay, controls and atmosphere wouldn't be the same, especially the way the whole game/DLC would be handled. Rockstar would do it differently than any other developers.

On top of that, all these zombies games you guys suggest to other people are only on the PC. Which is sad, considering a large part of the fanbase plays on consoles.

Apology accepted

I was just stating that if i wanted to play a zombie game.. it would be more logical to me to pay for a game that was a zombie game and not a fun after thought for a totally different game. Just like i didn't bother with RDR Zombies. But that's just my opinion... they don't have to do what i say lol

And i think it's like World of warcraft, it would be quite hard to put on consoles. But i would like it on a console rather than a PC.

To your main point: EVERYTHING is being overdone. There are so few new good ideas and so many game publishers. The game business goes through cycles partly because of stale ideas.

GTA stands above, because it has so many elements of gameplay and entertainment, and it is so rich and well done. But that kind of game takes a ton of work, as we know. Only RDR is on par with GTA.

I can appreciate why people want to put zombies in GTAV, because they want to play a zombine game, and what better, bigger, richer, more familiar environment could you pick, than GTA? Makes good sense.

But I don't like zombies and if anything, I would rather see zombies as a game mod than have Rockstar displace other DLC efforts in order to make a zombie story. Maybe Rockstar could license somebody to write the "Omega Man" / "I am Legend" story for Los Santos and the countryside. Seriously.

Since you resurrected this zombie thread, now I have to spew a couple of relevant jokes:

1. Another zombie thread? Geez, I thought somebody shot this thing in the head and put it down for good, but now the damn thing is walking around again. Hand me that flamethrower....
